If you like adult hentai games then you might just enjoy Hentai Diaries.
This new game – available to play for free online – combines a simple free-roaming school-based environment with an adult dating sim.

You play the part of the new student and it is your job to make as many new friends as possible to help with your ‘studies’. From the gymnasium to the nurses office and across many classrooms and corridors, you get to decide how the story unfolds and collect the digits of all your conquests.
In this Hentai Diaries review we check out the story behind one of the newest adult games, and give you all the information you need to decide whether its worth playing.
What is Hentai Diaries?
Produced with the help of supporters from the Patreon crowdfunding website, Hentai Diaries is an erotic hentai game featuring an all animated cast with adult sex scenes in a free-roaming environment.
Hentai Diaries was developed in 2017 and was fully launched as a free-to-play online game on 23rd April 2018.
This developer also produced the niche animated dating sim, the Furry Beach Club.
Both games have been part-funded by supporters on Patreon, the membership platform helping creatives to bring their subscription services and content to market.
The site is very popular with developers of adult games and you can find a full review of the top NSFW creators in our feature guide.
The premise of this hentai game is pretty straightforward and playing is simple. You are a new student at the local high school and you can explore the grounds and classrooms in a free-roaming mode to meet and interact with other students.
The game already has a lot of fans including those from specialist hentai sites where communities have grown around the gameplay:
Although it was only launched several months ago, Hentai Diaries is getting over 100,000 hits every month. Most users seem to be coming from the U.S.A. (45%) with fans in Vietnam, Germany, Russia and the U.K.
Using Hentai Diaries
The game is a free-play environment where you can interact with the other characters, build relationships and pick up mini-missions.
The aim is to build enough of a rapport with your fellow students to be rewarded with a private ‘study’ session.
This can be achieved by getting to know the characters, asking the right questions and giving the best responses.
Your progress with each character is monitored using an indicator bar to the right hand side of your screen. Speak out of turn or do something wrong and you will quickly find your friendship cooling off.
Likewise, if you say the right things to the right people and give them what they ask for then you can find a friendship quickly having lots of fringe benefits.
You can access the game via the main website and launch it from within your browser and play, either as a guest or as a member. Membership is free and this allows you to save your progress and purchases coins to unlock premium features (see below).
The grounds of the school are visible on a map and you can head to any area which includes the nurses office, library, gym and various classrooms and corridors.
When you meet a new character, you can select them with your cursor and start a conversation. Some characters like to get to know you before you hit them up with dirty talk whilst others are happy to jump straight to it.
You will often need to fetch an item to take the relationship further and this is where the game comes into its own.
Unlike a lot of sim games, there is some complexity and work required to get your rewards and, in this way, does offer more of an extended gaming experience.
When you finally get to the intimate stage with the friends you meet along the way, a XXX scene is unlocked and you can save the contact details of your new FWB. Stored in your cell-phone, you can replay and repeat these scenes at leisure.
Technical Specifications
Hentai Diaries will play in any browser that supports HTML5 and can be played on latptop, PC and mobile devices.
Though you can launch the game in Mozilla, Opera and Internet Explorer, it is recommended that you use Google Chrome for the best gaming experience.
As an online game, you will need an internet connection and the faster this is, the more responsive your gameplay will be.
There is sound with the game but it is not an essential component.
What Does Playing Hentai Diaries Cost?
Playing Hentai Diaries is free and you can explore quite a lot of the school and characters without having to spend any money.
However, most (if not all) of the XXX scenes and adult interactions can only occur if you buy some coins to complete your mini-missions, get items and unlock new characters/scenes.
Coins are the currency of the game and you can purchases these in bundles using credit card, Mister Cash, GiroPay, iDEAL or SofortBanking:
| Coins | Bonus Coins | Price |
| 125 | 0 | $10.00 |
| 250 | 25 | $20.00 |
| 425 | 75 | $30.00 |
| 1000 | 200 | $60.00 |
You can also purchase membership through the Patreon website where regular supporters are rewarded with badge upgrades, coins and other benefits. You can get in on the action for just $1 a month.
Extras
You can also buy body pillows and pillow cases from Sim Toys Interactive which feature some of the cast of Hentai Diaries. These full length (50cm x 150xm) pillows and cases are made from polyester and feature two way tricot (spandex and polyester) for ease of cleaning!
They don’t come cheap at over $50 plus the cost of the pillow but do offer fans the chance to spend the night with the characters they meet on screen.
Hentai Diaries Review: Is It Any Good?
The game is reasonably well thought out and offers a pretty decent gaming experience with attention to detail in the relationships you build up.
We like the fact that the game is not easy but is simple to play.
You don’t need a 50-page manual to get you started but you wont get bored in five minutes. Sometimes it’s nice to work for your rewards however some people will find it too much effort to get to the ‘good stuff’.
As a new game, there are new features and updates still being added and regular patrons on the Patreon website will get notification of these as they happen.
We also like the fact that you don’t have to pay through the nose to play the game. The free account gets you well set-up and you can certainly get a feel for the way the game works without spending a penny.
Like what you see? For $10 – a one-off payment that wont break the bank – you get to venture a little further in the game plus you get to bank your unused coins.
The animations aren’t the best we have seen – even for a simple hentai title – and some more work could go in to making these a little more detailed and explicit.
There is also a fairly limited amount of material available to view although the developers are promising some more fetish content in due course on top of the regularly updated scenes.
Overall, the game will appeal to hentai fans and is a great addition to the stable of niche games for this market.
They’ve done well to bring another quality free game to the web which is actually worth playing, and paying, for.
